this or that thursday

Welcome to the very first This or That Thursday! I'm looking forward to visiting your blogs and seeing what you're sharing today.

I'm sharing my favorite flower... the daisy...



They are just such happy flowers.


And I have a few more wildflower photos from last month when we were in North Carolina. I think it's called queen anne's lace.









There are just a few rules.

  • submit the url of your blog post, not your home page
  • link up a photo that was taken by you
  • include a link back to my blog in your post (you can use the button or a text link if you prefer)
  • visit a few other blogs and leave comments
Okay, now it's your turn to join in!

    Beautiful Deb. The Queen Anne lace flowers are very similar to white coriander flowers, both in size and structure.

    I love the clarity of the fresh white and gold of daisies especially when contrasted with a gorgeous green background as you've done here.

    My Mother grows Queen Anne's Lace for floral arrangements and they truly are lovely additions to arrangements if not a little messy as they drop their little blossoms.

    Happy day Lovely You!

    Okay, I had to laugh about the daisy being a "happy flower". Just got an image of Bob Ross painting. lol

    Now, those flowers are so pretty!

    I've always loved daisy's too. In all colors. (they sure like to dye them in stores!)

    I've never seen the other flower, so nice and dainty.

    Great captures my friend! I'm excited about this or that!

    Hope you have a great day♥

    1st time entering this or that... love your flower shots.

    your comment, "they are just such happy flowers" reminds me of Meg Ryan in You've Got Mail where she says, "I love daisies, they're so friendly. Don't you think that daisies are the friendliest flower?"

    sorry, I do that sometimes... quote movies =)

    Holy cow Deb! This is quite a party happenin' here, how wonderful!!

    I love queen anne's lace - it reminds me of my grandparents as they would grow it in their garden, so I think my favorite has to be the second one for sentimental reasons.
